Once Upon A One Night Stand

Li Han was sober now and felt disgusted when indifferently looking at the woman who was in deep sleep. He tried hard to suppress anger and calm down. Then he raised his voice to call her name, "Chujing."

Jiang Chujing was still closing her eyes as if she had not heard anyone call her at all.

However, her slightly trembling eyelashes betrayed her and was noticed by Li Han.

He took a deep breath, trying to hold back his temper. "Chujing, I know you're awake."

He was giving her a chance. Jiang Chujing, who was pretending to be asleep at this moment, felt frightened listening to his tone even as she didn't see his expression now.

After thinking for a while, she finally opened her eyes slowly.

Under the dim wall lamp in the bedroom, she was lying while he was sitting there. Even though the bed was big, they were close to each other. Jiang Chujing looked up at the man beside her and felt her heart race since she had never been so close to Li Han, let alone sleeping on the same bed.

"Han..." She called out to him in a deliberate coquettish voice that sounded a little ambiguous in the middle of the night.

Li Han decisively turned over and got out of bed. In a few steps, he walked to the door and turned on all the lights in the room.

In an instant, the bedroom was filled with bright light. Jiang Chujing seemed to be blinded by the light that she used her hand to block it for a while and then put her hand down.

She was only wearing a very thin pajama with lace straps and wanted to seduce him.

Li Han's face had completely darkened. He asked a little angrily. "Why are you here?"

Jiang Chujing grabbed the pajamas on her chest with one hand and protected herself as if she was the one who was scared by others. "I, I had nightmares and I was so scared but I didn't want to disturb you so I sneaked in..."

Then, she was about to cry. "Han, I dreamed about my parents' car accident. It was so real and vivid as if it reappeared in front of me. I was so scared, especially when I dreamed about my father's eyes. I was really scared..."

Li Han looked at her and calmly said. "Chujing, you can call me if you're afraid but you can't sneak into my room. There's no place for you here."

His words successfully declined Jiang Chujing. He would always get the point which she cared about the most. She knew that this man was using this method to break her imagination. However, she could stop loving him and never give up.

He looked down at the woman sitting in the middle of the bed and said seriously, "You have always dreamed of your parents all these years. I know you're sad but it's all over. Don't think too much..."

Li Han had already found something wrong with Jiang Chujing. She kept mentioning the accident of her parents which he felt too heartbroken to mention. However, as a daughter, she did not seem to care as much as she said.

As soon as Jiang Chujing heard what he said, she began to feel afraid and quickly got out of bed. "I'm sorry, Han. I didn't know you would mind so much."

"Of course I do." Li Han looked at her with sharp eyes. "You're the one I treat as my sister but now you're sneaking into my bed. Do you think it's appropriate?"

Jiang Chujing smiled bitterly and spread out her hands. "I was just sleeping here. I didn't do anything!"

After that, she seemed to think of something and asked, "Are you afraid that Shu Tian will be unhappy? She doesn't want me to touch her things even if it's just a bed?"

"Jiang Chujing!" Li Han said solemnly. "In fact, you should call her sister-in-law."

Jiang Chujing seemed to be frightened by his words. She staggered and almost lost her balance. "What... What did you say?"

Li Han did not repeat but said in an interrogative manner, "I know you understand."

She knew what he said and just didn't want to accept the truth. She even lied to herself.

Li Han had once made it clear to her but she had never given up. He knew her obsession with him but he didn't dare to say much to her because of her illness.

However, he couldn't accept her sleeping in his bed without his permission tonight.

"Han, I, I didn't know you would care so much. If I knew, I wouldn't have done that." Jiang Chujing did not expect him to make it clear so she was a little flustered at that moment. She was afraid that he would hate her while she didn't get any benefits at the same time.

"I shouldn't have said this to you as you are not in good health but I still want you to understand that I only have affection between family members for you. I believe Shu Tian and will live the rest of my life with her. You don't have to compete with her. You two are different to me and I will not change my attitude towards you at all."

His words undoubtedly left no fantasy for Jiang Chujing anymore.

She bit her lip and looked at the light gray sheet. "Is she that good? Is she worth all your efforts?"

Li Han nodded without hesitation. "Yes."

Jiang Chujing smiled pitifully and felt desperate. "Han, you promised my parents that you would stay with me and take care of me for the rest of your life. You still have to break your promise now."

"I will take care of you as long as I am still alive." Li Han also told her firmly, "But this is the only relationship between you and me."

"Han..." Jiang Chujing stared at him with wide eyes, not knowing what to say.

"Chujing, don't make things difficult for me. If you continue like this, I can only send you away from me. Don't force me, okay?"

This was undoubtedly what Jiang Chujing was most afraid of hearing. She never thought that Li Han would say this to her one day. She hated Shu Tian and thought this woman was to blame.

Shu Tian, Shu Tian, Shu Tian!

He did all for that bitch!

Before she could calm down, Li Han had already let her leave. He pushed the bedroom door open a little and reminded her with a cold look, "Go out."

Even though she couldn't bear to leave, Jiang Chujing still had to. She walked slowly to the door and still asked the moment she brushed past him, "Han, is she that good?"

Shu Tian helped him overcome the painful memory. He became mature and changed his attitude towards her and could reasonably talk about her parents' tragic experience, which made Jiang Chujing start to feel afraid.

Jiang Chujing could take advantage of the accident of her parents to require him to do many things. But it would be meaningless if he became rational.

Li Han pushed the door open in front of her with a little strength. Just as Jiang Chujing was waiting for his answer, his cold voice came into her ear. "It's none of your business whether she is good or not."
